Initialize Educational Environment

Before accessing education data, read ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/references/education-data.md. Resolve <education-db> using that contract. Current session ID: ${CLAUDE_SESSION_ID}.

1. Inspect before changing files

Read the project CLAUDE.md, .claude/CLAUDE.md, .claude/settings.json, .claude/claude-teacher.json, and existing <education-db>/student.json and dashboard.json, when present.

• Preserve all unrelated instructions, settings, hooks, and student work. If a JSON file is invalid, report it and recover it before updating.
• Do not write setup files until the student has supplied the required onboarding and project answers. Honor supplied answers; do not ask again.
• If a profile exists, greet the student and ask whether to set up this project using it or update selected profile fields. Never delete the profile to edit it.
• If they want a full reset, direct them to /claude-teacher:reset-edu. Do not invoke or reproduce that manual-only skill automatically.

2. Onboard a new student

Ask one question at a time and wait for the answer. The student may skip personal questions; save unknown values as null or empty arrays. Do not require an age or infer one.

1. What should I call you?
2. How old are you, or would you prefer to skip that?
3. What is your current level: beginner, some experience, intermediate, or advanced?
4. What subjects or skills do you already know well?
5. Which learning approaches do you prefer: diagrams, examples first, analogies, theory first, hands-on practice, or a mix?
6. What frustrates you when learning?
7. What are your goals and any deadlines?
8. What interests or hobbies could I use for examples?
9. How would you describe your ideal teacher's tone and approach?

Save an object in <education-db>/student.json after collecting the answers:

{
  "name": "preferred name",
  "age": null,
  "level": "beginner",
  "known_subjects": [],
  "learning_style": [],
  "frustrations": [],
  "goals": [{"goal": "student's goal", "deadline": null}],
  "interests": [],
  "teacher_persona": "student's own description"
}
